Baker, Louisiana

History, Historic House

Would you care for a glass of lemonade and a little conversation? A visit to our small town and its museum is something like a visit to your Grandmother's home and her home town. The atmosphere is friendly and comfortable. Enjoy the porch swing. Step inside the front door and it's a little like entering a time machine, like traveling back 100 year to a simpler time. A time of one room schools, the country store, the kitchen garden. Sit in the shade of the big tree and wait for the afternoon train to pass. You can almost forget that the world is passing by at 45 mph on a five lane state highway. You can almost hear the birds chirping, the clinking of the blacksmith's hammer on his anvil. Drop in, sit a while, have a glass of lemonade. And remember.
